So, I'm getting low on my supply of Canus Unscented Goat's Milk Soap. I was thinking of adding AHA to my regimen and wanted an even more gentle soap - not that this stuff is harsh in the least.

I use it because it has a pH level VERY similar to that of human skin and actually makes my face feel clean (unlike Cetaphil)

I plan on picking up some Alpha Hydrox Enhanced Lotion and noticed they have a dandy little foaming facial wash that seems to have pretty high reviews.

Anyone tried it? There's no actual AHA in the cleanser, I don't think, but it's supposed to be fairly gentle and help balance the pH level of your skin to prep it for the AHA afterwards.

And, because of my love of goat's milk soap, are there any liquid variations that don't contain tons of oils?

Other than experience with these, can anyone recommend a decent facial cleanser?

and no, I will NOT use Cetaphil, Clean and Clear, Neutrogena, Burts Bees or Aveeno.

I used to use LUSH soaps and cleansers. Not sure if you've heard of them or not, but they have a lot of natural, organic, and vegan options. I would use the 'Coalface Cleanser' bar and liked it a lot. I only stopped using it because I starting using Dove Sensitive Skin Bar and it worked fine for me (and cheaper is good for my college girl pockets!)

You could try Dan's. His is very good and simple.
